Change the 'start' menu name into your name...

Only three steps you can do it...              
                                                                        
 Step1:- Download "resource hacker" software. You can download it using Google. It is free to download.

Step2:- Modify EXPLORER.EXE file.

i)  It is located in c:\windows\explorer.exe
ii) Start resource hacker program, Open explorer.exe.
iii) Expand "string table" and expand "37" change "start" to your name and hit compile script also expand "38" and do the same procedure as like above.
iv) Save the modified "explorer.exe" to your "name.exe". by choosing the option save as.( don't hit to 'save' option, you need to keep explorer.exe back up.) 

Step3:- Modify the registry....

i)  Run the command 'regedit' from start->run->regedit.
ii)  Open the path- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SOFTWARE\ Microsoft\ Windows NT\ Current Version\
iii)  Click on "Winlogon"
iv)  In the right side you will find "shell", right click to modify it, in the "value data" portion enter your newly saved explorer, which is your name.exe.
v)  Click "OK" and restart the system.

Friends, plz be careful while doing above process...
If you did any mistake when editing registry, after reboot, XP will load without explorer.exe. Means, nothing will appear on screen except desktop wallpaper !!

If this happen, press Alt+Ctrl+Del, hit "new task" browse and open "c:\windows\explorer.exe".

Now you can browse your system, then open c:\windows\regedit, edit "shell", as you did you in above process to default "explorer.exe".

reboot....

Nevertheless if you are confused you can see my video which i am going to upload after few days.

Enjoy....

Web developers are the real criminals.

Web developers are the real criminals:- Web developers are equally responsible for the hacking, every time a website is hacked, the hackers are to be blamed. Is it only a hacker to be blamed? Not only the hackers but also website developers are equally responsible for the hacking since they don't develop websites which are completely secured.

A Black Hat hacker has said that " No hacker can hack the any website if it is secured. Hacker can those websites that have vulnerabilities".

The developers are paid lot for their creation and hence it is their responsibility to develop it without any loopholes. But, their low quality work lets hackers to hack into their websites.

Surprisingly, most of the developers are not certified. Developers must posses advanced PHP skills and hacking/ security knowledge for web development. Also they should have a good understanding of a large range of computer related topics. Most of the developing work is given to that person who are new to the web developing field and having a less knowledge than professional developers. So, it should not be happen to secure your websites thoroughly.

Few about Bill Gates

Bill Gates earns US$250 every second, that about US$20 million a day and US$7.8 Billion a year.

If he drops thousand dollar, he won't even bother to pick it up because 4 seconds he picks it, he would have earn it back.

The US national debt is about 5.62 trillion, If Bill Gates were to pay the debt by himself ; he will finish it within 10 years. 

He can donate US$15 to everyone on earth but still be left with US$5 million for his pocket money.

Michael Jordan is the highest paid athlete in US. If he doesn't eat and drink and keeps up his annual income i.e. US$ 30 million, he will have to wait to 277 years to become as rich as Bill Gates is now.

If Bill Gates was a country, he would be the 37th richest country in the world.

If you change all of Bill Gate's money to US$1 notes, you can make a road from earth to moon, 14 times
back and forth. But you have to make that road non-stop for 1,400 years, and use a total of 713 BOEING 747 planes to transport all money.

If we assume that bill Gates will live for another 35 years, he has to spend US$ 6.78 million per day to finish all his money before he can go to heaven.

Last but not the least: If Microsoft windows' users can claim US$1 for every time there computer hang because of Microsoft Windows, Bill Gates will bankrupt in 3 years.

Beware of quake related net scam

The US Computer Emergency Readiness team (US-CERT) said to the computer users to be wary of "potential email scams, fake anti virus and phishing attacks regarding japan earthquake and tsunami disasters."

"Email scams may contain links or attachments which may direct users to phishing or malware-laden website."
"Fake anti virus may come in the form of pop-ups which flash security warnings and ask the user credit card information," it said.

"Phishing emails and websites requesting donation for bogus charitable organizations commonly appear after these types of natural disasters," US-CERT added.

Phishing refers to attempts to steal user names,passwords and other personal information from unsuspecting victims, mostly through emails or instant messages.

Pray for victims killed in this massive calamity. I'm sure they will rise again for fight.
